Sodium naphthalene sulphonate formaldehyde (SNF) is an anionic surfactant for the preparation of anti-freezing agents, retarders, and compound accelerators. Its use in the construction industry for strengthening the mixture is likely to lead to a spike in demand. The global sodium naphthalene sulphonate formaldehyde market report looks at the use of additives to be used in the construction sector as well as its future prospects for the period of 2016 to 2023 (forecast period).
Market Scope
The global sodium naphthalene sulphonate formaldehyde market is expected to reach a significant valuation by exhibiting a CAGR of 3.8% during the forecast period. It is driven by the inclusion of the compound in concrete mixtures. Free-flowing and pumpable concrete mixtures are in high demand in the market. SNF acts as a water reducer and improves cement mobility and workability. It is easily soluble in glycerol, diethylene glycol, ethylene glycol, and other alcohols but insoluble in organic solvents. The unique nature of the compound can lead to the formation of distinct concrete formulations which require less water content. It can offer tolerance to different concrete admixers.
Segmentation
